Amman, Aug. 24 (Petra) -- Jordan Food and Drug Administration (JFDA) said Monday that registered mesotherapy products are approved strictly for external use, warning against injecting or using them in any way that allows them to enter the body.

Licensed mesotherapy products are classified globally as cosmetics and are registered with its medical devices and supplies registration department in line with approved standards and procedures. These undergo certified laboratory testing, including appearance and sterility checks, the JFDA said in a press release.

It called on importers, practitioners and consumers to strictly adhere to the approved method of use for these products, and not to promote, distribute or use them in any manner inconsistent with their registered classification, nature and intended purpose.

The authority urged anyone with comments, inquiries or complaints to reach out through its official complaints platform via WhatsApp at 0795632000 or its toll-free complaints line, 117114.
